Afrojack has expanded the reach of his Kapuchon alias with a debut release on Hot Creations, the influential label founded by Jamie Jones and Lee Foss.
The new single, Secret Moves, showcases the club-focused side of the Dutch producer through a relentless and groove-driven house sound.
Built around a heavy bassline and a hypnotic loop, the track relies on subtle changes in arrangement to maintain momentum.
Rather than constantly introducing new elements, the production gradually evolves, allowing the tension to build naturally.
A short vocal sample briefly appears before the drop, creating a moment of anticipation before the low-end energy takes control once again.
The Kapuchon project has existed for more than a decade.
Afrojack originally created the alias as an outlet for his deeper house and techno productions, separate from the festival-oriented sound associated with his main artist identity.
Although the project remained relatively quiet for several years, it returned to the spotlight in 2020 with the release of 10 Years Later and the launch of Kapuchon Records.
Since its revival, the alias has continued to gain recognition within the electronic music community.
Several unreleased Kapuchon productions have attracted support from major artists, including Swedish House Mafia, Anyma, Dom Dolla, and John Summit.
The release of “Secret Moves” arrives during a particularly busy period for the project.

Afrojack in Full Throttle with Kapuchon
At Ultra Music Festival earlier this year, Afrojack stepped onto the mainstage as Kapuchon.
The performance highlighted his underground-oriented project. Later that same day, he returned as Afrojack for a second set.
A few months later, he joined Shimza for a back-to-back set on the Quasar Stage at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
The momentum continued through a North American club tour that brought Kapuchon into more intimate venues.
The run included appearances at Sound Nightclub, Refuge, and StereoBar, giving fans a closer look at the project’s underground-focused direction.
“Secret Moves” also follows a series of recent releases from Afrojack.
In May, he teamed up with Miss Monique and GLZ for Hot Sauce on AETERNA Records.
Earlier in the year, he collaborated with Lucas & Steve on Control, which arrived through Black Book Records.
By joining Hot Creations, Kapuchon adds another milestone to its growing catalog.
With every release, Kapuchon moves further into its own lane. The project reflects Afrojack’s passion for underground club music.
It’s offering a clear contrast to the high-energy festival sound associated with his main brand.
